SECTION C. – CHANGING BOARD SETTINGS AND OPERATION
This section outlines how to change any of the settings for tuning your voice effect.
The voice amp has 12 functions that are accessed via the onboard programming pushbutton. These functions are
included to help mitigate feedback and to enable different features. The programmable settings are:
(1) increase VOX on threshold
(2) increase VOX off threshold
(3) increase auto talk squelch time (mic open time) in VOX mode
(4) enable PTT or VOX mode
(5) Change vocal pitch
(6) Change bulk input mic gain
(7) Change fine input mic gain
(8) Enable the breath FX sound
(9) Set breath volume
(10) Change silence gap between breath playback
(11) Change amount of helmet echo
(12) Reset all saved parameters to factory defaults
CHANGING SETTINGS
The onboard programming pushbutton allows you to set up and use the features of the board. Each feature on the
board is accessed by pressing the programming button the desired number of times. The board will then increment
the setting mapped to the number of button presses you entered. Below is a table outlining each feature and the
button press mapping.
NOTE: If any of the settings are changed, they are automatically saved in EPROM memory, which is not lost after
powerdown. Thus you only need to change the setting once, and the unit will remember your settings upon each
powerup.
